This Week In Imports: It’s A Fantasy Life For Level-5

Level-5 isn’t taking a break for the holidays like other publishers. They have two games scheduled for this week, Fantasy Life and a 3DS compilation of six Inazuma Eleven games.

Fantasy Life is from Mother 3 and Layton’s Life maker Brownie Brown. You can play as a soldier, magician or live an ordinary life as a miner in the game. With Animal Crossing: New Leaf sold out in Japan we wonder if Fantasy Life can fill the void.

The box art is nice and colorful, hope my copy ships soon and it’d be fun.. and AmiAmi would include the mini-soundtrack, need my Uematsu music :)

I would have thought that publishers would actually put more stuff out during Christmas….

That’s interesting. I can see arguments both for and against releasing games the week of Christmas and I absolutely trust that publishers have done the market research and know what’s best. Which then begs the question… what does Level 5 see in this week that nobody else does? Are these games uniquely well suited to this week or something?

I made the mistake of watching some trailers of Fantasy Life. Mistake. I really want that game. D;
